But why would they? The statement from Maiden basically confirms that they still intend to release the show.

They weren't. Someone from Phantom posted on the FC forum yesterday. Seemed like a quicker fix than the absolute shambles with the North American pre-sale

What if they lost all the footage because of the power cut?

Historic show last night. Maiden were firing on all cylinders from the start, and the performance up to 2 Minutes was more or less flawless. Maybe the best of the shows I have seen in 25/26. Hoping for a statement from Maiden about the incident.

Pollstar probably.

41k apparently. New record for Maiden in Athens. Better result than both Rammstein and Guns N Roses.

Fantastic result for Athens in particular.

Didn't recognise the song at all.

Sales must be quite bad. And the worst part is that I sort of hope they don’t do too well, because I fear this is the type of shows/events they are aiming for in the future. I want them to do "normal" shows and tours.

Decent guitarist, and he was lucky to be in Maiden at the right time.

Wonder if he asked Steve if he can attend the Rock N Roll HOF ceremony.

London was 69k + hospitality I think around 73k in total

Steve might want to tour next year, but I can't imagine him getting his way. Where on earth can they tour after milking basically every corner of the earth since the pandemic? They need that break not just for the band, but also to build up demand.

I agree, it's super strange if he doesn’t do a European tour during the summer/festival season. I can't find the interview, probably because of a regional block, but I found this at the FC forum

I think Europe actually. It's the interview he did a few months ago in Jersey.
